My friend invited me to share a 3gb folder she had. I accepted. Now I want to leave the folder and cant. I followed the advice from: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZoTpNkvPCI The problem is that no folders appear under 'Sharing' in my Dropbox so I cant remove myself. I also looked for other ways to leave the folder but see no option to remove myself. Any ideas on how? ThanksSolved65KViews4likes76CommentsSomeone sent me a link.

I am trying to share a file and get the message "We’ve interrupted your sharing activity because your files might contain phishing content" Relevant Facts: 1) File does not contain phishing content. 2) I haven't used dropbox for about a year, so I'm not over any limits. 3) File is legal content, legally obtained. 4) File is 22 MB. No customer support except for paid subscriptions. So I guess this is why I don't use dropbox.....22KViews2likes183CommentsHow to get the URL of an image for an HTML email?
I uploaded an image for use in an HTML email, then shared it and copied the link. After putting the link in my email, and testing the email, the image will not show up. It is just a broken link. I have not put it in a shared folder because I did not want users who get the email to be able to access the folder and its contents, but the file itself is shared. Am I using the wrong link?Solved15KViews0likes5CommentsHow do I access shared files without upgrading my account as I'm low on storage space?

I am currently organizing my wedding. One of the ideas that I have is providing guests with a QR code that direct them to my dropbox. The intent is for them to take pictures on the big day and upload them to the file so that after the wedding I can transfer the pics to shutterfly to make a book. When I asked a friend to try the process she was able to get to the file and was able to look at the pics that I have in there. She however was not able to load any of her own into the account and got the notification " this folder is view only". Is there any way that I can change the settings so that everbody that access the QR code can upload pics?Solved10KViews0likes8Comments
